Winter break activities

The Viking Ship Museum offers exciting winter holiday activities every day from February 7 to 22.

The Mysterious Shipwreck

Discover maritime archaeology this winter at the Viking Ship Museum. The whole family can dive deep into the field of maritime archaeology, as you investigate a mysterious shipwreck recently discovered on the seabed. 
During winter break, you can explore the pop-up exhibition The Mystery in the Deep in the maritime archaeologists’ workshop. Here, you’ll learn more about two ships found near Copenhagen.

There are plenty of other experiences at the Viking Ship Museum during winter break. Get closer to life at sea 1,000 years ago.
Dress up as Vikings and step back in time aboard two large Viking ships equipped for raids. Afterwards, visit the Children’s Settlement, where you can explore the lives of those who stayed behind while others went on expeditions.
